Casks in maturation
Spirit per cask200 L
A barrel holds around 200 litres; a hogshead nearer 250.
Annual evaporative loss2.0%
The angels’ share. Often two to four per cent a year in cool climates, and higher in the heat.
Maturation period8 years
The first year conditions the Bonnet, so the reduction is counted from the second year onward.
Value of the spirit
Per litre of maturing spirit, in your chosen currency.
Reduction with the Bonnet30%
A controlled trial recorded an average reduction of 43 per cent, which we have set as the upper limit here. A lower figure may be chosen for a more cautious projection.
